Posted a picture of a Louisa M. Alcott book that came in the mail yesterday. Its a 1912 edition. I had never heard of this one have you?
Rain here today, and I wanted to go buy some plants and play outside but its not looking like that kind of day yet.
Still time to sign up for my drawing if you want to, its the post before the current one on my site. Drawing is Wednesday.

You really do find the best things. Tea pots are so pretty, can't help but collect them. Aound here, they are cheaper than the fancy tea cups.

I love Louisa May Alcott. I've read mostly everything she wrote and I've been fortunate enough to actually visit the Alcott home in Concord, Mass twice. I love Conocrd, I call it Literary Heaven. There are the Alcotts, Hawthorne, Thoreau, Emerson and others. I have Little Woman Abroud in my to read pile. It has all of the letters that Louisa and May wrote while they were in Europe. Has anyone read her diary? It's so interesting. It's a wonderful book that gives you glimpses into the Alcott way of life.

I love her too! Great finds Nancy Jo!

Oh Marcy, one thing I regret is not visiting Orchard House (among other places) when I lived in New England. Maybe some day!
